| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 1. while driving down the steep tollgate highway in eastern oregon, 2. the brakes on the vehicle (1990 chrysler, imperial) failed. my wife was driving and her two sisters were riding in the vehicle with her. the car was finally brought to a stop without crashing into another vehicle or off the roadway. 3. the vehicle was taken to "frontier motors inc." in "lagrand, oregon". at "frontier motors" they received a fax about the "nhtsa recall bulletin" stating that this 1990 chrysler imperial has abs failures and should be replaced with a lifetime coverage. when i called them on the phone they told me they were so busy that it would take about a week to get parts and another week to fix the brakes. i then had the vehicle taken to "yakima, washington" in "central washington" where we live. "hahn motors" in yakima washington looked at the vehicle and said that because it had a "bosch" system for the abs and the master cylinder that it wasn't under a recall and that there weren't any parts to replace this vehicle with nor did anyone rebuild the braking system. the only thing that could be done was to take it to the wrecking yard and junk it out. the reason i am filing this complaint is that i don't see any thing on the "recall bulletin", campaign no.: 96v099000 that says anything about a "bosh" not being under the recall or life time coverage. please look into the matter for me. vin "[xxx]" information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr |
